RailSafe 4-Sided Kit

RailSafe 4-Sided Kit

The Ockwells RailSafe System is a reusable temporary barrier designed for a range of applications, including use in conjunction with the Ockwells Stairwell Hatch System.

The RailSafe system comprises of a combination of metal corner and straight posts, combined with adjustable metal rails. Incorporated into the system is a Ladder Gate which creates a ladder access point and also acts to securely close off any openings, reducing the risk of falls from height.

Our most popular configuration, the RailSafe 4-Sided Kit provides a complete temporary barrier around the perimeter of a stairwell opening and is designed to complement the Ockwells Stairwell Hatch System. The kit combines four corner posts, two standard posts and twelve adjustable 1050-1600 mm telescopic handrails to provide protection on all four sides. A RailSafe Safety Gate completes the configuration, providing a designated access point while helping to keep the stairwell opening securely protected.

The max. opening dimensions for the RailSafe 4-Sided Kit measure as 1026mm (H) x 1340mm (W) x 2900mm (L).
